How to Heel

Set or align the wheel into the "bracket" as well as you can.

Make a fist and hit the wheel with the bottom of your fist to fully "seat" the axles into the "bracket".

Visually inspect the wheels and axles to make sure they are seated straight in the "bracket" so that the wheels spin freely; and stomp down on each wheel to make sure they are locked securely in place.

Please remember that although using your Heelys skate shoes is extremely enjoyable, there is a learning curve. Skating with Heelys is a sport, and the key is to learn how to heel safely and properly. While using protective gear can not guarantee your safety, it could greatly reduce your chances of injury. We therefore always recommend wearing full protective gear when using your Heelys skate shoes including: helmet, wrist guards, knee pads, and elbow pads. Be sure to avoid cracks and skate only on smooth, stable, dry surfaces. DO NOT SKATE OVER ROCKS, SAND, OR WATER.
